  2. I have never heard this story before. Some people are natural piece makers. Thank you for this History Lesson.

    I was almost a senior citizen before I learned about the healing waters of Olympic Springs, Kentucky. The story was written up in THE KENTUCKY EXPLORER. Rich people and Royalty traveled from far away to stay in the Hotel, to bathe and drink the healing water of Olympic Springs (which was located in Bath County, KY). I did not believe it; because, I had been there (I had seen anything about a hotel and healing water there). So, I talked to Daddy. Daddy told me the story was true. I wanted to know what had happened to it? Daddy told me that the sewer had leached deep down into the ground and polluted the water so badly that it put the Hotel out of business.

    THE KENTUCKY EXPLORER is still being published inside KENTUCKY MONTHLY magazine. I had feared that both magazines had gone out of business. Both magazines were wonderful as they were; but, they are GREAT together.

  3. I've been a book reader for many, many years. I was not able to sit and listen to something unless it was music. These days, I've come to rely on videos, not yet completely audio, and then I found Y'all's channel. When I'm reading, if a writer is skilled enough to write as though the people are speaking in my head, accents, drawls, and more. So, since I've hung around and "listened" to your stories, I've found that it's not the words, but the sounds of those words that make me listen raptly. You have that skill. Not just telling the story but making it sound real. What a wonderful skill. You've touched my imagination. 😊
    I thank you, Sir.

  4. Very very familiar with this area and those mountains. One of the most remote areas in all of TN bar none over in Morgan Co. Coal mining country up until fairly recently and there are areas even today you just don’t go unless invited. Would love to turn back the clock about 75 years to see what it looked like. Great story!!!

  5. Good afternoon, I just love all you stories. Question JD, this might be none of my business but how long have you been telling stories on UTube. The reason I would like to know is , I haven't been listening to your stories but about 2 month's and I just love absolutely love your stories. I wanted to go back on UTube and listen to the very first one that you put on U Tube. This was a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing this with us ❤
